We learn with interest that we may expect the manuscript of volume II of your work in
a short while, work on this having been interrupted in recent months.3

We consider the pre-release publication of a {2} selection
from your volume II
in the Beethoven-Jahrbuch to be worth doing on the
assumption that the material quoted will be accompanied by an announcement of the
forthcoming publication.
